HOPA Practice Management 2022
Oncology Pharmacy Practice Management Program
HOPA Practice Management Returns to In-Person | Thursday September 22, 2022 | Omni Shoreham Hotel | Washington, D.C.
A Day Dedicated to the Practice of Perseverance
Over the past few years, you have taken on professional responsibilities that exceed your hematology/oncology practice. Yet, you persevered. As we slowly exit the challenges caused by COVID-19, this year’s conference theme could not be more evident – “Practice Management 2022: The Practice of Perseverance.”
During this year’s Practice Management 2022 (PM22), you will experience themes and topics aimed to acknowledge personal and professional challenges, address how “change” affects your daily practice, and how it might influence the path you take in the field of hematology/oncology pharmacy.
The day begins with a welcome from HOPA’s president, Heidi Finnes, PharmD, BCOP, FHOPA, followed by the Niesha Griffith Keynote Address. The day’s keynote reflects on contemporary concerns, aptly titled “A Chance of Awesome: How Changing the Way You See Changes Everything” Our keynote speaker will be Jason Kotecki, CSP.
